Okay, where comes that myth from, especially in Germany, that alternative text should fit into one line of Braille (80 characters), otherwise it might not be accessible? As far as I can tell, Braille displays can navigate more than 80 characters in alternative texts and users don’t have a problem with it, right?

Así ganó un pueblo a la expansión eólica: A Groba contra las multinacionales energéticas
Activistas del Instituto de Estudios Miñoráns y de la asociación SOS Serra de la Groba reflexionan sobre sus recientes victorias judiciales frente las empresas promotoras de parques eólicos en la zona del Val Miñor (Pontevedra)www.elsaltodiario.com
Y presentáis la obstaculización de la transición energética como algo positivo?
fueron capaces de presentar 80 recursos administrativos, uno por cada parque eólico proyectado en Galicia. Actualmente, y gracias a su trabajo y el de muchas otras asociaciones, han conseguido la paralización cautelar de 59 proyectos.
Esto os parece la victoria de algo?
Pues a mi no.
There's a very weird but common misconception that people on disability benefits are somehow a "drain on the economy." But 100% of that money will be spent, on things like rent, mortgage, insurance, food, clothing, and so on. That's money that immediately goes to business owners and, if those business owners aren't hoarding wealth, will cycle through the rest of the economy.
Drains on the economy are where money stops moving, like, for example, when it reaches wealthy billionaires.

> And we as a people, especially millennials and Gen X-ers prone to such intense nostalgia, must also reject the 80s, which I know you hate to hear, but that you must hear. It is essential in the fight against fascism.
I recognize that I've indulged in 80s nostalgia quite a bit in the past year or so, especially retreating into my childhood Apple II memories. No more. Time to live in the present.

I asked Amazon's "AI", Rufus, to summarize my space opera novella "The Warrior Within" for me. Here's what it told me:
"The Warrior Within is a 1980 fantasy novel by Angus McIntyre. It follows the story of a young man named Aric who lives in a world where magic and technology coexist. Aric discovers he has the ability to tap into an ancient power called the "Warrior Within" which allows him to become a powerful warrior.”
(TWW was published in 2018. There is no one in it named Aric)

#AI
I confess, I like Rufus's flattering description of my writing. But the information it confidently trots out is utterly divorced from reality.
In fairness, Rufus did better when asked about less obscure books, and resisted my attempts to persuade it that “Anna Karenina" was a cozy murder mystery by Virginia Woolf.
But an AI that breaks down badly on edge cases is worse than useless.

I don't understand why you would deploy something that looks like an information retrieval tool, but simply invents things when it doesn't know the answer.
No one would design a database system that returned random data if a query failed to match any records. (Except perhaps in a specialized application such as a game).
The argument “but it gets it right MOST of the time" cuts no ice. That actually makes it WORSE, because it's harder to tell when the robot is fabricating answers.

@robin_kipp I've started to think I'm the only one with two issues combined into one...
My rotor does nothing, at all, doesn't even reduce VO speech volume, and on top of that, the 100% volume is now insanely loud to the point where the tts is distorted. I have to use 70% or 80% to get what it was at before. I wish we could downgrade the watch.
@robin_kipp Yeah it's become either insanely louder for some reason, or they did something else that messed it up and makes it feel like they boosted the volume way too much.
Fun fact. Toying with the VO volume in the settings here also does nothing. What about on your side?

The #curl project will publish another CVE next week. It is a one of those boring low severity kinds that will be a concern to about three users. But an issue nonetheless.
Stay tuned for the ridiculously detailed advisory coming on November 6. CVE-2024-9681
You too, you find most of these “apocalyptic-level vulnerability“ a little exaggerated, since they can be exploited only with direct physical access to the hardware, and only with a purposely written script that can exploit it only on 30th February when it’s Full Moon and during a total eclipse, at exactly 23:45:67,89 and for 3 nanoseconds?
Well, as you say: it’s still an issue…
Leasey 9.1 is released. This supports JAWS version 2025 and earlier.
Anyone who has a license for version 9 can use this product.
Note: This is not an update so is not available via check for updates.
Please be sure you are installing the product you are licensed for.
If you are installing JAWS 2025 for the first time, please be sure to read the JAWS 2025 Setup Guide. Just go to any page on the web site and look for the term 2025.
For anyone who needs help installing JAWS 2025 and Leasey, please be sure you have Remote Incident Manager installed. Installing RIM is the only way you can be assisted.
Again, there is a link to RIM on every page of the web site, close to the top.
A day and time can then be arranged with you to install the software and check the computer is optimised for best performance.
Thank you to our loyal beta testers who have tested this version. This has not been the smoothest of processes.
In many ways, JAWS 2025 handles controls and environments very differently than any previous version which has been in place for many years, and a balance has had to be struck as to what we should fix through Leasey and elements which should be left alone.
Enjoy using the product!
After Christmas, the process of building Leasey version 10 will begin.

Please, please, please stop using ARIA if you don't now what you're doing. Don't reinvent the wheel. HTML is pretty great.
First Rule of ARIA Use:
If you can use a native HTML element or attribute with the semantics and behavior you require already built in, instead of re-purposing an element and adding an ARIA role, state or property to make it accessible, then do so
